Shower

Whoops !! Sorry for the absence, but I'm back at work and in the real world after my maternity leave.....and stamping time is hard to come by !



I'm actually sacrificing sleep to stamp. And I LOVE my sleep so that is a real indicator of how calm this hobby makes me !




Anywhoo...on to the card.


Had to create a shower card for a customer. This card uses some MME lost and found paper..it is SUCH a pretty line. I rarely use this much pattern paper- or this little stamping!- on a card but it felt right.

Rose Red and Kraft - my new favourite colour combo !!

I emphasized the ribbon around the dummy's waist with some glitter and an i-rock pearl. Paper was stamped with an SU punch, and ribbon is SU kraft seam binding.

Stamps in the upper corner are PTI scattered showers.

Thanks for looking and enjoy your day !

  2. Such a pretty card. Your bow is professional quality. I ike how you made that strip with the border punch. I never thought of doing it that way, but I'm going to try it. It looks great. Good luck going back to work. You will be one busy mama!
